### 2/5 — voiceover compatibility issues

*2026-07-27, version 1.5.13*

although the app works great and I have not had any trouble with connections, as a visually impaired/legally blind user, there are several elements that are not recognized by voiceover. When attempting to go back to the previous screen or open the menu in the top right corner, voiceover is unable to identify those objects at all. Because of this, I have to disable voiceover every time I want to even exit a menu, go back to a previous screen, etc. Although I have some usable vision, this is highly annoying and the annoyance does accumulate overtime.

### 2/5 — とても不完全なアプリ

*2026-07-05*

録音すればあまりサスペダルが反応せず、ノンペルダルの状態になってしまっている。そもそもその録音したデータを外に一切出せない時点でとても不思議なのだが、ガレージバンドはじめ他の会社やメーカーさんのアプリに完全に劣っている。
また、取説も自分の機種からだとみれない。
後の調整は確かにできるが、音楽を扱うアプリとしてあまりにガタガタだと思いますが、どうお考えですか？
他の機能は普通に使いやすいが故にとても残念です。
決定的な問題を感じるので星一にしたいところ、他は使えるので星2。
また、せっかく音源は沢山あるのに、プリセットに保存するような機能も一切ないのは全く疑問なのですがなぜですか？
毎度選ぶたびに探すの？笑
音楽を扱うアプリとしてちょっとね、、、
やめたほうがいいよ、こんなレベルなら。
品格が下がる。

### 3/5 — 않이 블루뚜쓰 끊긴다구요...

*2026-07-01*

브루뚜쓰 쓔바꺼 왜자꾸 끊기는데 ㅡㅡ ㅗ

### 3/5 — Enregistrement/Record

*2026-06-23*

Bonjour, une fois l’enregistrement fait il n’est pas possible de l’exporter sous un format midi ou mp3 ?
C’est dommage si l’enregistrement reste seulement dans l’application

**Developer response:** Cette fonctionnalité n'est pas disponible pour le moment. Nous vous remercions de vos commentaires et nous en tiendrons compte.

### 3/5 — Foot peddle

*2026-06-06, version 1.5.13*

When recording my session it isn’t factoring in the foot peddle. What’s up with that??

### 3/5 — Update!

*2026-05-23, version 1.5.13*

Desperately needs ability for record to share midi / track - also sustain doesn’t work on recorder.

### 2/5 — Almost 2 years of suffering

*2026-05-20*

Disadv:
1 - When I logged in the app and then open app for the first time in the day sometimes it is not working at all because it could authorize me on their service. So, you just can't use app at all.
2 - Even without logging in if you have no internet the application will not run ( Why I need internet if I want to use my local piano with metronome from the app. Just why?)
3 - If I'm using metronom on the app the phone automatically disconected from the piano and I need to manually connect application to the piano so I could use metronom again. No, the problem not on the bluetooth. Purely app problem.
4 - daily goals not working because application can't hold the connection to the piano more than 5 minutes.

Adv:
1 - since piano does not have any screen for understanding what tempo you have right now or what instrument you decide to use the only way to comfortable work with it is phone.
2 -  you can record what you're playing right to the app. Quality is doubtfull though.

### 4/5 — A very good app

*2026-04-07, version 1.5.11*

I am changing this review often.  Now I found out that the app works well on one iPad and not on another.  Same IOS.

### 3/5 — Update changed behavior

*2026-04-02, version 1.5.11*

Before this latest update, the app would use BT and scan for my FP-10 piano. It was reliable and very useful. 

Now the app scans for network. I have to close this connection, scan for my piano, and can then proceed. I see no way to change the scanning order.

### 1/5 — Funktioniert nicht mehr

*2026-03-31*

Die App funktionierte früher, jetzt zeigt sie beim Start nur noch einen grauen Bildschirm an und nichts passiert

**Developer response:** Vielen Dank für Ihre Bewertung – es tut uns leid, dass Sie diese Erfahrung machen mussten. Wir sind uns dieses Problems bewusst und gehen der Sache derzeit nach. Vielen Dank für Ihre Geduld, während wir daran arbeiten, die App zu verbessern.

### 2/5 — This app is so bad

*2026-03-31, version 1.5.9*

I don’t really understand how this is the official Roland piano app. This really needs to be improved, especially for this being a higher-end piano manufacturer.

### 2/5 — Useful when working

*2026-03-30, version 1.5.9*

Great for accompaniment and chord identification. Unfortunately, randomly becomes unusable because of grey screen at open. Even uninstalling and reinstalling doesn’t fix.

### 1/5 — Not working anymore

*2026-03-29*

Doesn’t even open with iOS 26.4

### 1/5 — App doesn’t work on iPhone

*2026-03-28, version 1.5.9*

App doesn’t work on my iPhone I just get an empty gray screen.

### 1/5 — Gray screen

*2026-03-28, version 1.5.9*

App does not work, only shows a gray screen. I've tried closing and reopening the app, reinstalling, and rebooting the phone, and nothing has worked.

### 1/5 — Nicht kompatibel mit iOS 26.4

*2026-03-28*

Nach dem Update auf iOS 26.4 hängt die App mit einem schwarzen Bildschirm. Auch nach Neuinstallation.

**Developer response:** Vielen Dank für Ihre Bewertung. Es tut uns leid zu hören, dass Sie von der App enttäuscht sind und Schwierigkeiten bei der Nutzung haben. Uns ist dieses Problem bekannt, und wir gehen der Sache derzeit nach.

### 3/5 — Unter iOS 26.4 bleibt der Bildschirm schwarz

*2026-03-28*

Habe mir ein wirkliches tolles Roland F107 zugelegt, nur leider funktioniert die App unter iOS 26.4 nicht, der Bildschirm bleibt einfach nur schwarz, bitte schnell beheben

**Developer response:** Vielen Dank für Ihr Feedback. Es tut uns leid zu erfahren, dass Sie mit der App nicht zufrieden sind und Schwierigkeiten bei der Nutzung haben. Wir sind uns dieses Problems bewusst und arbeiten aktiv daran, es zu beheben.

### 3/5 — Continuous Play

*2026-03-27, version 1.5.9*

We love the Roland app. It also helps us play some morning or evening piano through the library. However, the app currently doesn’t play the whole cloud playlist or library. Can you please enable a feature that lets it play the entire playlist or library from the app. That will truly help us enjoy some great pieces without intervention.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Can’t use

*2026-08-18, version 1.5.13*

Can’t even get past the loading screen, just says ‘Acquisition Error’ every time

### 1/5 — Can’t use

*2026-06-13, version 1.5.13*

Can’t even get past the loading screen, just says ‘Acquisition Error’

### 1/5 — Unbelievably the worst

*2026-06-01, version 1.5.13*

App won’t connect most of the time, at random, makes me want to return the piano. Roland FRP Nuvola EX isn’t tolerable unless sound is adjusted using the app. But the app is disgraceful.

### 1/5 — App broken

*2026-05-24, version 1.5.13*

App doesn’t open

### 1/5 — ?/?

*2026-05-16, version 1.5.13*

we paid for your piano why do we have to pay again

### 1/5 — Nur auf englisch, Passwort wird nicht gespeichert

*2026-05-06*

Leider gibt es die App nur auf englisch. Sicherlich wird es sehr viele Roland User in Deutschland geben, warum übersetzt man die App nicht? Zudem muss bei jedem benutzen der App das Passwort neu eingegeben werden, da die App es nicht speichert. So ist die App kaum zu gebrauchen.

**Developer response:** Vielen Dank für Ihre Bewertung. Es tut uns leid zu hören, dass Sie von der App enttäuscht sind und Schwierigkeiten bei der Nutzung haben. Uns ist dieses Problem bekannt, und wir gehen der Sache derzeit nach. Wir wissen Ihr Feedback sehr zu schätzen; ich werde Ihre Anmerkungen notieren und intern weiterleiten.

### 1/5 — Won’t work

*2026-04-23, version 1.5.11*

It literally just won’t let me do anything, it just keeps saying error

### 1/5 — Keeps on disconnecting

*2026-04-20, version 1.5.11*

Was fine, now every time I get connected it disconnects a few minutes later. Using IOS 26.4.1.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t connect through Bluetooth

*2026-04-15, version 1.5.11*

iPhone 16 pro, always updated to the latest patch, the app never recognizes the piano through Bluetooth despite multiple attempts and power cycling/ rebooting app. That’s the core purpose of the app right?

### 1/5 — Useless

*2026-04-05, version 1.5.11*

Disconnects every 5 minutes.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Great App IMO

*2026-06-03, version 1.5.13*

Honestly was surprised to see so many complaints and low ratings. Worked like a charm for me. Never tried to login, but the rest of the functionality- changing settings/ sounds etc worked flawlessly for me.

### 5/5 — They fixed it

*2026-04-04, version 1.5.11*

It’s fixed

### 5/5 — Lots more features

*2026-03-23, version 1.5.9*

The app adds a lot of features to my piano. Haven’t needed it but their tech support seems very responsive.

### 5/5 — So good, so special, so necessary

*2026-03-20, version 1.5.9*

I love and and highly recommend it.  When Apple products update, you must wait for their update.  FYI, the IOS 26.4 Beta, is preventing the app from working.  This problem was unexpected.

### 5/5 — So good, so special, so necessary

*2026-02-21*

I love and and highly recommend it.  When Apple products update, I can contact Roland if there is a disfunction and soon, un update is given!  FYI, the IOS 26.4 is blocking the app.  I get the IOS updates earlier.  Which is probably helpful for others.  IOS 26.3 is fine with the app.

**Developer response:** So sorry to hear you are having trouble with our app. We are aware of this issue and are currently looking into it.

If you reach out to us through our customer support portal we would be happy to assist you further.

### 5/5 — Please add the function to save and share recordings

*2026-02-05, version 1.5.9*

Good and easy to use overall. But I really like the recordings could be saved and shared together with the strings patterns. That helps me a lot when learning to play a song.

### 5/5 — Well done Roland

*2025-02-22, version 1.5.5*

In my opinion this is a very useful app.  It enhances the
use of a Roland digital piano.

### 5/5 — Fp10

*2025-01-09*

Me encanta!!!!, el hecho de grabar lo que tocas y luego muestrearlo tipo syntesia es una pasada. Ademas de tener el control del teclado y configuraciones.

**Developer response:** ¡Me alegra oír eso! ¡Gracias por tus comentarios!

### 5/5 — Es buena pero

*2024-12-12*

No me deja conectar el piano aunque tenga el piano compatible para la applicacion(FP-10) porfavor arreglen eso o díganme que puedo hacer
